    Just added LR, need a little help

    Boy you have a lot of LS. I would replace all your bioballs, Get the Oceanic skimmer and upgrade your pump. A Hydor deflector is nice as well. I have a biocube 14 gal and upgraded the pump to a Rio 800 which gave me over 70 gph more flow and added a Hydor as well which really circulates the...

    lighting on 14 biocube

    There is a site out there that sells a lighting upgrade kit to have either 3 pc's with upgraded air flow for about $75 or a 70W MH setup I believe to be around $350 with increased air flow as well. All directions are included and it retains the factory hood. So everything looks exactly stock...

    Are you sure he was dead. Sometimes it takes a while for them to perk up after being acclimated.

    no. that ph is very suitable for a reef steup. Here are some good perameters to go by. For a coral reef setup: Specific Gravity - 1.025 Temp. 82 Ph - 8.0-8.5 Alk - 6-8 dKH Ammonia - near zero Nitrite - near zero Nitrate - <.25 ppm Phos - .13 ppm Calcium - 380-420 ppm Magnesium - 1300 ppm...

    Also, you didn't add the bagged water did you? Do not ever add the bagged water. At all cost try to scope the animal out and put them it after acclimation.

    I wouldn't worry too much. wait till in the morning. Drip acclimation is the safest way. I usually use a shot glass and put 1 shot glass every 5-7 min for 30-45 min then throw them in. I haven't had an acclimation loss yet except my star fish. I personally think it was sick to begin with. But...

    Just make sure you are not overdoseing calcium if you try B-Ionic. Purple-up is what I was talking about and it works great too. The banded probly just found somthing it liked. They eat worms and bristle's I think they eat aptasia too.He may have found something to eat. In my tank I have a...

    I am not sure what that is, can't tell from the picture. All I know is as long as it isn't fuzzy hair algae, red, or bubbly probly not a problem. Check into that B-Ionic though or something simmilar called purple something. They have lots of them out there. But coralline algae is very beneficial...

    My 14gal BioCube

    Looks good. I have the same setup but I upgraded the pump to a rio 800 and added a Hydor which really stirs it up. On your sand bed, you may have too much. I had the same amount but the nitrates started to spike. So I took about half out and now everything is good. But I have the mid course...

    HELP! What is wrong with my marble star?

    I understand what you are saying. The SG is still the same but it appears that something is eating at it. It was on the back side of my rock and today it is moving back out and one of it's legs are almost completely detached like something nawed it off. All spots shown in the pic are now gone...

    HELP! What is wrong with my marble star?

    He is still moving good and flipping over. Two spots look like they have disappeared. Is it possible I could have something hiding in my tank and it attacked my star? Everything I have purchased for the tank is docile (Flame Angel, Six Line Wrasse, blue and red leg hermits, tiger conch, frilly...

    Can anyone identify this worm?

    It appears to be in a tube or has an outer covering and some kind of teeth or something almost like a human tapeworm by the looks of it's teeth like protrusions. The last pic shows it opening it's mouth the best I could get a pic.
